Heaven on earth, so Harshil is a favourite destination of OnMap adventure sports and travellers who love unspoiled nature.
Harsil is a pristine and hidden gem of Uttarakhand that offers ample space for people seeking peace and tranquillity in the lap of the Himalayas. It is located on the banks of the Bhagirathi River at an altitude of 2620 m above sea level. This picturesque village has become a favourite among travel enthusiasts and nature lovers in recent years.
A paradise for nature lovers, Harsil also offers many opportunities for thrill seekers like trekking and hiking. The landscape is nourished by the river Bhagirathi. Harsil is known for its apple production, which according to local tradition was brought to the area by British settler Fredric E Wilson. It is said that Wilson fell in love with Harsil and a local girl and made this village his home. He introduced apple cultivation and transportation of goods (Wood) through the river to Harsil valley and changed its economy. Today, Harsil apples are popular across the country and the annual Harsil Apple Festival is a major attraction! Harsil has one more secret that attracts tourists. This was where legendary filmmaker Raj Kapoor shot portions of his superhit Ram Teri Ganga Maili. The village post office, which was featured in the film, still stands today, just as it did about 40 years ago! Walk through the small settlement and listen to the villagers proudly reminisce about the film.
There are several adventure hiking trails around Harsil that you can take. A holiday in Harsil is a rejuvenating experience where you can indulge in meditation and yoga.
Some high-altitude Himalayan treks start from Harsil valley i.e. Lamkhaga pass and Dhumdhar Kandi pass, Kalandikhal pass, Auden's Col, Gaumukh-Tapovan Trek and Kedar Tal.
